[β] smeg@feddit.uk 13 points 2 years ago* (1 child) Is there a reason given anywhere? There is: Iβve worked on this project a decade. That is a long time and I need to move on in life. permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] xsecur@noc.social 3 points 2 years ago (1 child) @smeg @schizoidman Based on what I saw in a forum, they want to move on. Have been single handedly maintaining a project for a decade. They, through the project, also requested donations to help sustain this project early this year. Clearly, finance is one of the reasons. Maintaining such a project and rolling out updates as a single contributor, no doubt, is a hard and more than commendable task. I'm not surprised this has come to this permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] smeg@feddit.uk 6 points 2 years ago Yeah I'm not surprised a single developer project would end, I'm just surprised something with such a good rep only had one maintainer! Huge credit to them for all their effort, hopefully this prompts a larger group to pick up the work. permalink fedilink source parent
